Anti Virus & Firewall info.
Some Antivirus and Firewall Software may interfere with the test results !
Some AntiVirus Software may detect this software as a Trojan/Virus/Malware, this is just a false positive. Rest assured with the fact there are no viruses/trojans/malware etc or anything else of this nature. False positives happen because it is using UPX compression which often does cause this problem. For this reason iv added an alternative ZIP download, below, which often cures the false positive problem when downloading the installation file, this does not help if you are getting a virus warning whilst installing or running JDast.
If your getting the download flagged as a potential threat try this zipped installer instead.

AntiVirus software that has been known to flag JDast as a virus :-
* Avast
* AVG
* Norton Internet Security 2010
Here is a VirusTotal scan for JDast_Installer.exe taken on the 24/12/2011
As soon as I release a new version of JDast I initiate a white-listing procedure with AVG & Symantec (these 2 seem to have the most problems). It does take quite a while for them to complete there testing and to white-list Jdast.
I would do the white-listing before I upload the new versions but unfortunately these companies need to be able to see & download JDast from the web site that it will be available to the public on, so I have to upload it before I can get it white-listed.
White-listing of JDast has been talked about on the forum, if your interested or whish to ask a question please visit the link bellow.
